Thanks a lot for the accurate and quick reply.
Then the "Convert symbol to group to edit" is not very clear for new users.

0) Could it be replaced by """click the "Cut the selected clones' links" icon to edit.""" ?

Some further propositions:
1) rephrase the icon tooltip
   "Cut the selected clones' links to originals, turning them into standalone objects"
   to
   "Unlink, making the selected objects standalone"
2) add this "Unlink" operation to the popup menu (right click) for linked objects.
3) Same, in the Object menu.

and more importantly for ergonomy,
4) let the "Object to path" operation unlink automatically, instead of failing.
